Mia felt a headache coming on when she saw the trending topic. She really didn't want to be known for this. But after checking out the trend, she realized there was only a photo of her and Liam walking into the venue. There weren't any photos of her face.She relaxed a little. It was fine as long as there weren't any photos of her. Still, what was up with the content? Why were people talking about how she and Liam had gotten together three years ago and were only just revealing their relationship?She supposed it was only to be expected of entertainment news. Her and Liam's names were the only real things in this whole mess—everything else had been made up.Mia explained everything to Gina. She told Gina how Liam was only a body double for Linden and that the paparazzi had gotten the wrong man.Then, she went out to buy a whole bunch of stuff. They were all gifts that she'd prepared for Dominic and Eva; they could bring the things back to Nord City.Mia looked at Liam. "Will the r

Shelly was still full of pent-up frustration. She hadn't had anywhere to vent it. To make matters worse, Laura had been singing Mia's praises. It had irritated her to no end.Wilhelmina said pointedly, "I saw her at a small studio there. It looked like she was there for an interview."Shelly sat up in bed, all traces of drowsiness gone. "I need more details. Give me the address, too."Wilhelmina gave her a quick rundown. After that, she turned to see Mia follow Felix out of his office. Felix announced, "We have a new member joining us today, everyone. Please give Mia a warm welcome!"Wilhelmina smirked. Mia had stolen her trophy and was even thinking of stealing the man she liked. How could she let Mia off the hook?…Mia officially started work the following day. She wanted to earn some money before she started her classes.The receptionist approached her. "Mia, there's a client asking for you.""Me?" Mia found this odd. It was her first day of work. Why would a client be look

A hint of mockery flashed in Mia's eyes as she looked at the order. She'd furnished every inch of the marital home with her heart, and a certain someone had disregarded it like it meant nothing. Now, they even wanted her to design a new home for her ex-husband and his first love!They'd crossed the line with this!It looked like they wouldn't let her off the hook; they were constantly trying to provoke her. Since backing down wouldn't resolve the problem, Mia would probably be better off facing them directly. As long as they weren't afraid of the consequences, what would she have to fear?Mia's eyes flashed coldly. She called the number indicated in the order. Heath's voice rang out awkwardly on the other end of the line. "Ahem. Mrs. Barrett.""You don't have to call me that now that we've signed the divorce papers. I'll cut to the chase—you guys are the ones behind that online order, right?"Heath nodded. "Yes.""I'll accept it, but I have a condition. I want to be paid tenfol

Before Mia could say anything, Mildred piped up sycophantically. "You must be Timothy. Honestly, Mia didn't even tell us about her marrying you. We didn't expect you to be so outstanding! This must be a blessing from the heavens."If Mia ever acts up or throws a tantrum, you can let me know. I'll teach her a lesson!"Mary smiled and added, "Yes, exactly. We're a family now, so we should help each other out whenever necessary."Timothy had long since looked into Mia's background. He knew she was an orphan but that a couple had adopted her. Despite that, she'd grown up with her aunt. That alone was enough to tell him that Mia's adoptive parents weren't exactly great people.He looked at Mary and Mildred coldly. "What do you guys want?"Mary's eyes lit up. "It's simple, really. The little bitch won a million dollars in prize money from that competition she participated in, yet she didn't bother asking whether we needed anything."Her brother's going to start dating soon. Who knows w

Within seconds, Timothy felt that Mia had become a stranger to him. Mary sneered, "It's one of those relationships, you know? Guys love jumping in to protect the girls as long as they sweetly call them their "big brothers" in the coyest way possible."Several of Mia's "brothers" appeared and took the assets under Patricia's name. They even got into a fight. Mary was convinced that there was more to these "brothers' than met the eye.Timothy squinted, recalling the man who picked Mia up in his helicopter, and the mysterious man who paid the hospital ten years' worth of hospital bills. Timothy still couldn't identify those men until now. Could they be Mia's "brothers"?Not one to let Mary insult her brothers, Mia barked, "Holly, take them away. If they make a scene, ask the security to call the police.Mary scowled, "Mia, you're an ungrateful daughter. You ought to be slapped!" Mildred slumped to the ground, "Oh, Lord! What have I done to deserve this granddaughter of mine? She
